California State University-Sacramento Top Questions

I wish I had known that there were going to be continuous fee hikes every semester I am here. I thought tuition was going to stay the same for most of my college career. I'm taking so many units that I have no time for a job and that makes it even tougher to be able to afford school and live on my own.

The communication problems.

Before attending the school, I wished I would have learned more about each of the majors offered. Even though Career Fairs were offered and gave a detailed description of each profession, I wished I would have been introduced to these careers at an early age.

I wished that I knew about the requirements for the classes. For example, the general education. There were so many classes and requirements that I had to take before my major classes. I thought it would be very easy to get in and very focused onto major core classes for four years.

I'm glad I didn't know much about this school before coming in. It gave me a lot of reasons to explore the school campus and ask questions about the school. If I had known more information about this school before coming in, I would not have been able to socially interact with others.

The independence of being in college and planning out classes, I was almost thrown into the lion's den after freshman year and I wish I would had utilized the academic advising more as a sophomore.

I wish I had known the classes would be so large and difficult to get in to.

Not to rush getting a lot of classes at once, pace yourself and you will get good grades. Don't expect to not study and get good grades. Don't procrastinate.

I wish I had known how hard it is to get a job on campus and how far most of the commutes are, unless you live on campus.
